Need ID for Micro-shell 2

Re: Need ID for Micro-shell 2
This is a Gibberula species, which means it can't be identified.  Okay, I'm exaggerating - a little.  But there are many species of these, many of which differ only in minor ways.  Given the large number of columellar plaits, and the locality provided, my best guess is G. subflava.  Other Indian Ocean species that are very similar are G. palazzii, G. luglii, and G. cherubini.
